Blue Cheese Scallion Biscuits
Source: Smitten Kitchen
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick or 3 ounces) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 1/2 cups crumbled blue cheese
4 scallions, finely chopped
1 cup well-shaken buttermilk
Method
Preheat oven to 450°F. Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar,
baking soda, and salt in a bowl, then blend in butter with your
fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in blue cheese and
scallions. Add buttermilk and stir until just combined.
Drop dough in 12 equal mounds about 2 inches apart onto a buttered
large baking sheet, or one lined with parchment paper. Bake in middle of
oven until golden, 16 to 20 minutes.
Do ahead: Biscuits are always best the day they are baked.
However, if you wish to get a lead on them, you can make them, drop them
onto your baking sheet, freeze them until they are firm, and place them
in a freezer bag or container until you’re ready to bake them. They can
be baked while still frozen (straight from the freezer), you’ll just
want to add a few minutes to the baking time.
